WQ94175 (e) Tabled on 24/09/2024

Why have projects such as Project Seagrass not been allocated a specific budget, considering that they are part of the Welsh Government's programme for government?

Answered by Deputy First Minister and Cabinet Secretary for Climate Change and Rural Affairs | Answered on 03/10/2024

Since 2021, Welsh Government has provided £298,000 of funding to Project Seagrass through the Nature Networks Programme and the Coastal Capacity Building scheme.

A competitive process provides a transparent, fair and equitable way to allocate government funding which enables a diverse range of organisations to access it.
